"what!!!"

The Mobei barbarians were so angry that Liu Ji screamed and swung their swords at him again.

Liu Ji quickly hid, hey, you can't hit~
While he was arrogant, he was caught off guard and was stabbed from behind with a cold spear. Wang Wu and others saw it, but because they were too far away, they were beyond their reach.

He only had time to shout loudly: "Watch your back!"

Liu Ji felt the wind blowing at his back, and there was a long knife in front of him. He couldn't move it forward or backward. He thought to himself, it's over now!
When life and death were at stake, a strong sense of unwillingness suddenly arose in my heart.

Is it possible that such a suave, handsome person like him should be confessed here?
He had accomplished nothing in his short life and was hated by people. He died like this. I'm afraid everyone felt that his wish was fulfilled.

But why should he let them get their wish?
Two steel knives came at the same time, one after the other. Liu Ji could no longer dodge, so he simply ducked down and rolled towards the horse's belly.

He only heard a "dang" sound, and the harsh sound of weapons clashing passed through his ears. Liu Ji's gums itched in discomfort and he swallowed hard uncontrollably.

A strong figure suddenly stretched out his hand and snatched Liu Ji out from under the hooves of the two Mobei people.

Liu Ji looked up and saw that it was Liu Qi, the grandson of the village chief.

At the moment of life and death, when a fellow villager meets a fellow villager, his eyes will literally burst into tears.

Liu Ji burst into tears.

But Liu Qi had no time to comfort him, so she hurriedly pushed his third uncle into the back of the grain truck, and rushed forward with a lonesome voice.

"Qi!" Liu Ji quickly caught him and warned him word for word: "Capture the thief first, capture the king, and kill their leader!"

Liu Qi was about to ask who was the leader when a heavy, cold dagger was thrust into his palm.

"This is the sword that your third aunt has sharpened. Now your third uncle will give it to you. You go and kill the one riding the bay red horse with a little extra white on the horse's forehead. Go quickly!"

The precious sword that Third Aunt has sharpened?

The hot-blooded young man's eyes shone brightly and he nodded heavily: "Okay!"

After taking the 'magic weapon that was shot by the third aunt', Liu Qi ran towards the chaotic night without saying a word.

Liu Ji's excited heart trembled.

Then the young man suddenly ran back and stood beside the grain cart with him, "Uncle, I can't catch up with the horse."

As soon as he finished speaking, the familiar steel knife came again. Liu Qi pounced on him, pulled the man off the horse, stabbed him to death with one knife.

The young man was very excited, "Uncle, this dagger is really useful!"

"Okay, then you stand with me and protect me." After hesitating for a moment, the man could only coax.

Liu Qi decisively agreed, "Okay!"

There seemed to be fewer and fewer enemies, and news of victory suddenly came from the front. Shangguan Lie had killed the leader of the Mobei cavalry.

The battle ended abruptly.

Liu Ji secretly wiped the water stains on his forehead that were either blood or sweat, and fell down on the grain pile as if he was exhausted.

However, Liu Qi seemed to have infinite energy, holding the dagger and looking for traces of enemy soldiers with gleaming eyes.

Unfortunately, they were all killed by the soldiers led by Shangguan Lie.

They chased for a long distance, and it took a full quarter of an hour before they returned. Each man was holding several heads in his hands, and everyone was excited to see them.

After returning to the team, the first thing Shangguan Lie did was to light torches and count the men, horses, and food.

Liu Qi had to return the dagger to Liu Ji first and return to his group.

Only then did Liu Ji know that the two of them had always been in Shangguan Lie's team.

Just one at the front and one at the end.And because Shangguan Lie had strict management and each guarded his own grain truck and never left his own group, the two of them had never seen each other.

Liu Qi also accidentally heard Liu Ji's shout just now, and then discovered his existence.

The village chief personally went to the county government to take care of this grandson.What does it mean that Liu Qi was placed in Shangguan Lie's team?
Liu Ji's eyes widened in disbelief. It turned out that he had mistakenly blamed the official who sent him there. He took his money and was really doing something.

He didn't give up because he only had five cents, but he seriously chose a reliable team leader for him.

Liu Ji recalled that along the way, his team had avoided various potential dangers many times under the leadership of Shangguan Lie.

Looking at the food transport team behind them that was in disarray, and their team leader who had died at the hands of the Mobei barbarians, they hurriedly bowed three times to the sky.

Thank you Mr. Cha. When Liu Ji gets rich in the future, he will definitely come to thank you.

After a round of counting, there was no shortage of grain trucks, and the horses were fully protected by everyone, and there were no casualties.

However, 19 civilians died, seven were seriously injured and were about to die, and more than 40 people were slightly injured.

Five of the six people in Liu Ji's group suffered minor injuries to varying degrees.

He was the only one with messy hair, scruffy clothes, and not even a scratch on his skin, which was a miracle.

After the convoy completed a brief inventory, they took the dead civilian husbands with them, and everyone continued to the original camping site to repair and bury the dead on the spot.

Because Liu Ji was not injured, he was named to join the funeral team and dug a hole for most of the night. He only had time to rest in the early morning. As soon as he fell on the grass, he lay down in his wet cotton clothes and fell asleep.

The next day, he was forcibly awakened by his companions.

It was already dawn, and the troops continued to set off.

If he hadn't seen the heads hanging on the horses of Shangguan Lie and others, Liu Ji would have thought that the battle that happened last night was a dream.

After last night, the negative energy that everyone had accumulated for many days exploded collectively, their moods reached rock bottom, and the atmosphere was so oppressive that people could not breathe.

Many people were injured, and another grain transport team was on the verge of disintegration. Its marching speed slowed down greatly, and it could only travel eighty miles in one day.

At night, on the camping ground, everyone's homesickness reached its peak, and everyone wiped away tears, fearing that they would never go back.

"What's the date today?" Wang Wu suddenly asked.

Everyone thought for a while, and Liu Ji answered first: "It's October [-]th."

Wang Wu was a little dazed, "Is it only a month?"

Why does it feel like they've been gone for a year?

That Wangyue City is so far away, you can't reach it no matter how you walk.

Another person touched Liu Ji's shoulder, "How do you remember it so clearly?"

Liu Ji reluctantly spoke, forced out a smile that was uglier than bitter, and did not answer. He just sighed in his heart: because he didn't want to go home all the time.

Now that I think about my days studying in the academy, it was so wonderful, even the sour smell of my roommates’ feet was automatically filtered out.

Everything in the past makes me want to cry when I recall it.

"Huh~" Liu Ji exhaled and looked up at the moon in the sky.

The moon in Mobei is big and round.

The night in Mobei is cold and hungry!

The sugar and salt were gone, because the grain bag leaked halfway, and their food was included in the army rations. Now they don't even have food.

There are still two days to go to Wangyue City, and I don’t know how many people will be left by then.

That night, Liu Ji dreamed of the small courtyard in Liujia Village again, sobbing non-stop: "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Madam, I was wrong."

The next day, Wang Wu and others all looked at him with contempt. The seven-foot tall man actually admitted his mistakes to women in his dreams. He was so worthless!
